Hey there everyone! My name is Connor Knight and I am the President of Top Dog Tips. I currently

Thank you again for tuning into our podcast. And thank you for your continued support of the channel.

Today we will be discussing the confusing and misunderstood topic of vaccines for dogs.

Here is the previous podcast w/ Dr. Kingsley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8w7ShS7lKSg

The person that will be answering all of my questions about vaccines for dogs is Dr. Lyndsey Kingsley.

Dr. Lyndsey Kingsley is the Chief of Staff of the Bettervet.com. Better Vet is a mobile veterinary service that brings vet care to your home.

Which means, yes, these veterinarians perform house calls.

Better Vet offers very basic care all the way up to more minor services like surgery and teeth extraction. Check them out at bettervet.com for your next dog's vet visit.

Dr. Lyndsey Kingsley has been practicing since 2015, and her practice currently resides in Austin, Texas.

She has worked with hundreds and thousands of domestic pets during her tenure and is very well versed in discussing vaccines.

Some of the things I ask Dr. Kingsley are:

How did vaccines start? Where did they originate?

So why should people get their dogs vaccinated?

Were there any vaccines that didn’t work or were recalled?

What are core and non-core vaccines?

Which vaccines are ones that all dogs should have? (core vaccines) Why?

Do you recommend different vaccines for breed, age, lifestyle?

Even if a breed is more prone, do you still recommend vaccine if their lifestyle limits that exposure? - Which vaccines are important for west a. Midwest b. Northeast c. Southeast

What are the differences in vaccines dogs and cats should have

How does their indoor or outdoor frequency change what vaccines you would recommend?

Is over-vaccination a thing in dogs? Why is overvaccination happening?

What can happen when a dog is over-vaccinated?

Can a dog recover from being over-vaccinated? I even think my dog got one of these vaccines back to back years.

Can you explain why vets continue to vaccinate yearly or even every three years if this is the case for these kinds of vaccines?

What complications can come from over-vaccination?

Can some vaccines cause cancer?
